Firefighters used fire hoses to prevent the flames from spreading to surrounding buildings. Continuous surveillance was carried out using thermal imaging cameras and a drone.
The intervention is expected to last part of the evening and night. The firefighters will set up surveillance to ensure that the fires do not rekindle.
Eight people to be rehoused
68 people were evacuated during the operation. Eight people living in the four apartments of the burned building will have to be rehoused.
